well fuck.

telegram decided to sneak in a nazi symbol in their announcement of NFT usernames today, so i guess this is the thing that makes me switch to Signal. (1488 in the subscriber count, and i have been informed that 4/20 is Hitler's birthday, so y'know, not a coincidence)

edit: wolfie@queer.party pointed out another thing, they're highlighting Tucker Carlson in the blog post

Telegram announcement post about customising your profile. "the Doge Post" fake channel in the screenshot is shown as having 1488 subscribers. and to show that they actually did this intentionally, the date, which is just as much of a detail as the subscriber count, is 4/20
screenshot from the mobile announcement of Telegrams' changes showing that the username @goodboy was a collectible username sold on a crypto marketplace for 420 bullshit coins.
